Mrs. Misfeldt Passes Away Suddenly

Rasmine Rasmussen was born in Denmark July 15, 1855, and died at her home in Sioux Township March 9, 1934, at the age of 78 years.

In the year of 1880 she came to America locating in Monona County. On March 2, 1881, she was united in marriage to Christian H. Misfeldt. Three children were born to them, Henry and Carl of Moorhead, Iowa, and one daughter, who died in infancy. The husband died December 15, 1928.

She was baptized and confirmed in the Lutheran faith in Denmark and has been a member of the Ingemann’s Lutheran Church since it was built.

She was one of the real pioneer mothers having started housekeeping in a dugout on the farm where she lived until her death.

Besides the two sons, she is survived by five grandchildren.

The burial services were held Sunday afternoon, March 11, and the remains were laid to rest in Ingemann’s cemetery. Rev. J. H. Tennesen had charge of the services and Mr. Oldham directed the funeral.
